My Adventures With Superman: Episode 5 "You Will Believe a Man Can Lie"

[dewinged]

Oh man, poor Jimmy for so many reasons. Third wheel trio angst. :( And then having to deal with Lombard...

And my stars, Lombard has gone full Clownfish. Poor Jimmy.

I adore this version of Lois, and her intelligence and tenacity. Helps that Clark is absolutely terrible at lying.

Interesting take on Heat Wave. Seems to open up the stolen tech/criminals story a bit more with Suspiciously Bishounen Deathstroke.

Waller addressed the guy as General...my pet theory seems more likely...

Clark and Lous are so cute. And I'm glad the secret is out, even if Lois is brave...and a little...wow that jump.

But this is so sad 😔

Again, poor Jimmy. What did he way early on? Intelligent talking gorillas in France? Are we getting Mallah and the Brain?

Also, the end credits were sp depressing this time.

But the show is still so fun and wholesome omg.

I wonder what General no first or last name yet. But come on. It got to be Sam lane. Saw as a young man that got him scared enough to join Amanda Waller. And start a secret government organizations to stop a supposedly alien invasion in the future. They think that the Kryptonian technology will give the a chance to fight off the invasion.

Slade seem to use tech from previous episodes to make himself a battle suit with laser cutting swords.

Amanda, General and Slade are going after people with Kryptonian technology more aggressively now. But are butting head with the methods tactics of doing it.

Steve Lombard had pretty well interaction with Jimmy. In his own somewhat jerky way to give Jimmy reasonable advice. I laughed out loud when Jimmy found out that Lombard was Jimmy's online nemesis.


Lois is mad at Clark for keeping being Superman from her, Jimmy is mad at both of them for ditching him. Poor Jimmy. All he wanted to do was go camping with his best friends and now gotten kidnapped by a Gorilla or Bigfoot.


In the previous episode. I thought Dr. Ivo assistant was Lex Luthor. But apparently it was Toyman.

Yeah, Lois has been amazing so far. She's got the raw chaos energy of the Silver Age version (the Cat Grant impression, the repeated attempts to catch up to Superman on foot, the trust-fall jump, the handcuffs), but without any of the creaky, sorta-misogynistic tropes of that era.

We'll see how her story shakes out. We're going pretty fast through the goalposts I'd normally expect to linger over for longer, so I could see her running out of ways to evolve before we run out of show. But the showrunners sure seem to know where they're going, and I'll trust them for now.

Was not expecting depth out of Steve Lombard, I'll tell you that for a dollar. And yeah, it sucks to be Jimmy today, though if getting kidnapped by Bigfoot is the first step on his journey to becomig Mister Adventure, it may be a blessing in the long run.

I haven't seen it past the first episode (which I enjoyed) but it really feels like some people are getting mad at Lois Lane for doing Lois Lane shit in the new episode.

I'm enjoying the series a lot, but man, there are so many reused designs from Korra and Voltron. So. Many, Not that I'm complaining, those are good designs.
